DESCRIPTION:
EXPERIMENTAL??!!?? IT THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL A PS PLUG-IN A. Danforth When i mean experimental typography and working with computer type, i except studies about ways to use computer and bitmap fonts - not experimental in the definition of "vary you type case and your experimental" or "punk and bloat for experimental." unfortunately i should have known that ANYTHING labeled experimental typo. "Impressive" according to M. Cosner. Designers wishing to educate / RE-educate themselves in typography, as it relates to the digital realm, would find this book an invaluable resource. The first chapter does a great job of establishing the traditional "rules" of typography. As the author simply states, "Rules must be understood before they can be broken". V. Highly recommend this book! Greg Reyes I have enjoyed reading this book and applying the different techniques on various Video Productions. I highly recommend buying this book![]
